Treatment response. A 42-year-old man initially presenting with neck mass and constitutional symptoms. Contrast-enhanced axial CT at presentation (a) demonstrates a large left neck mass (arrow) replacing the left thyroid with tracheal deviation. b Staging whole body planar PET image demonstrates a hypermetabolic left lower neck mass (arrow) and heterogeneous marrow involvement. The patient underwent R-CHOP with intrathecal methotrexate, 4 cycles of hyper-CVAD and intrathecal methotrexate. Follow-up (c) whole-body planar PET image imaging show resolution of the cervical mass without evidence of distant disease. Diffuse homogeneous marrow uptake on the PET scan is likely related to post-therapy marrow activation
